“Shocking Exit on The Voice! Reba McEntire Loses Star Singer Tom Nitti – Find Out the Surprising Reason Behind His Departure!”
Reba McEntire chair was notably the only one that turned during Tom Nitti’s rendition of Stevie Wonder’s ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)’ in the Blind Auditions of The Voice. However, it has now been disclosed that Tom has exited the show, leaving Reba with one less team member. His departure from the competition is attributed to “personal reasons,” though details surrounding this decision remain scarce.
During the Playoff Rounds of Season 24, Reba expressed, “I have wonderfully talented people, but Tom had to leave for personal reasons, so I only have five artists tonight.” Tom’s departure leaves Jordan Rainer, Ruby Leigh, Jacquie Roar, and Noah Spencer as the remaining representatives of Team Reba. Notably, Reba’s Super Save singer, Ms. Monet, is also still in the competition.

Reba had praised Tom’s talent when she turned her chair for him, and he continued to gain fans as the season progressed. Despite his departure, Tom’s journey on The Voice included a Battle Round victory with Cody Johnson’s ‘Til You Can’t’ and a save by Reba after his Knockout Round cover of The Temptations’ ‘(I Know) I’m Losing You.’
Reflecting on her experience on The Voice, Reba mentioned that her fellow coaches—John Legend, Gwen Stefani, and Niall Horan—welcomed her warmly. However, she emphasized that, despite the friendly atmosphere, the competition remains intense. Reba shared, “They’ve helped me, they’ve guided me and taught me, and then after I learned up to that point, then they say, ‘You’re on your own.'” John Legend humorously added, “We still want to beat her.”
The Voice airs on NBC at 8 pm PT/ET on Mondays and 9 pm PT/ET on Tuesdays.
